It doesn't feel great, when I am greeted by nothing. By silence. Indifference... Am I even here? It doesn't feel great thinking about all the times I could have loved you as fiercely and as longingly as I do now, but I chose hate instead. I chose ugliness. I chose to treat you not as a gift, but as a burden. Wow... No, none of that feels great. And though I know nothing can be changed. Though I know I am not to live with regret and shame. It still hurts, when you're the person I want to call to share my happiness with to share in the fruitful time I am walking through... alone, but I can't. No...it doesn't feel great...

Though I Walk Through the Valley
It doesn't feel great, when I am greeted by nothing. By silence. Indifference... Am I even here? It doesn't feel great thinking about all the times I could have loved you as fiercely and as longingly as I do now, but I chose hate instead. I chose ugliness. I chose to treat you not as a gift, but as a burden. Wow... No, none of that feels great. And though I know nothing can be changed. Though I know I am not to live with regret and shame. It still hurts, when you're the person I want to call to share my happiness with to share in the fruitful time I am walking through... alone, but I can't. No...it doesn't feel great...
But it's okay. This too shall pass
